what were the different political parties in England ? their opinion?
Answers
Answer:
Boris Johnson's Conservative Party won a clear victory, with a majority of 80 seats in the House of Commons. It was the fourth successive defeat for the Labour Party, whose leader, Jeremy Corbyn, stood down in 2020.
Johnson, who had campaigned on the simple catch-phrase of "Get Brexit Done" confirmed that the UK would leave the European Union on 31st January – which has now happened.
Although the Conservatives won a comfortable majority in the House of Commons, thanks to the UK's "first-past-the-post" voting system, they only secured 43.6% of the national vote, less than the combined score of the Labour and Liberal-Democrat parties (43.7%) and considerably less than the total share of votes that went to all opposition parties (50.8% - excluding Northern Ireland).
In January, the new Conservative-dominated parliament finally passed a bill to take the UK out of the European Union on 31st January.
After this the UK enters a "transition period" during which, basically, nothing changes, and the UK will continue effectively as if it were still a member of the EU, while negotiations take place to establish Britain's trading and other relations with the EU after the end of the transition period.
Johnson continues to repeat that these negotiations will be completed by the end of 2020. However, as of September, little progress had been made, and discussions between the UK and the EU were becoming acrimonious. Since Johnson introduced a bill into parliament to retroactively modify the terms of the Withdrawal Agreement that he himself had negotiated and signed with the EU less than a year earlier, acrimony has returned to the debate in Britain too. Five former Prime Ministers, three Conservatives and two Labour, have severely criticised Johnson for planning to renege on an international treaty that he himself signed.
